Default Would they breed?

A friend and I have a pair of garter snakes between us - both about 2 years old, one male and one female. They shared a tank when we got them a year ago, and since then we've kept them seperately. We were thinking of putting them in a larger tank together at some point, but we're worried that they would breed before the female is ready for the stress.

The question is, would they breed, or can we keep them together without worrying?

Thanks.

They will almost certainly breed.

I wouldn't put them together unless breeding that year is your intent and your goal...
